(D) By definition,$1 \, 	ext{micron}$ (also known as a micrometre) is equal to $10^{-6} \, 	ext{metres}$.Since $1 \, 	ext{metre} = 100 \, 	ext{cm}

Vedclass · Accepted Answer

$1\, 	ext{micron} = 10^{-4} \, 	ext{cm}$

Vedclass · Answer

(D) By definition,$1 \, 	ext{micron}$ (also known as a micrometre) is equal to $10^{-6} \, 	ext{metres}$.Since $1 \, 	ext{metre} = 100 \, 	ext{cm} = 10^2 \, 	ext{cm}$,we can substitute this into the expression:$1 \, 	ext{micron} = 10^{-6} 	imes (10^2 \, 	ext{cm})$$1 \, 	ext{micron} = 10^{-6+2} \, 	ext{cm}$$1 \, 	ext{micron} = 10^{-4} \, 	ext{cm}$.Therefore,the correct option is $D$.

$A$ micron is related to a centimetre as:
